Ep26: Pipelining, Persuasion and Early Onboarding

Tech Recruiting is a hot topic at the moment for a vast majority of employers. I’ve been doing a lot of research recently into the similarities of the challenges in this area in different markets and geographies and very consistent themes are coming through.

My guest for this episode is Ina Bourmer Head of HR and Talent Acquisition for Goodgame Studios in Germany. Goodgame Studios is currently the fastest growing employer in Europe in the games sector and they are recruiting talent from 21 countries into their Hamburg HQ with a 100% direct sourcing model.

In the interview we discuss:

• The techniques they use to get a 60% response rate and 40% interest rate from their proactive sourcing

• How their onboarding team start working with candidates at first interview stage to help with the persuasion process

• The benefits of candidate experience SLAs

Ina also talks about the importance of People Analytics and what she is looking forward to at HR Tech World Congress in October
